RECOVERY CHURCH

Just an incredible day of riding the highways of the lower mainland winding around the majestic Rockies. As we headed back from our weekend of fasting and prayer with Prayer Canada to Abbotsford  found a chance to stop at a cold stone ice cream shop and we enjoyed our usual coffee lovers delight and an icecap. 
    Laurie and Ross we will be forever grateful for you introducing us to this incredible delicacy. Then off to Langley for the evening service at the Recovery church and as we expected we were so blessed and the ranch was so accepted, we will be hearing from them as the network to be a part of God's plan in rebuilding lives of our youth right here at home continues to grow.  
     On our ride back to Abbotsford we pulled into Redrobbins for a tea and a snack and at the door a guy commented on our leathers and he so happens to have gone to school at IBC in Moose Jaw and know Rance, Ruth and thier family well. Also went to school with Jamie, wow go figure!!!!.  So exciting to be apart of a new generation of missionaries to the battered men and women here in Canada.
-Read a sign that said religion is for those that are afraid of hell. 
-Jesus is for those that have been there.

Prayer Canada

Just an incredible time of fasting and prayer here amongst the great Rockies outside of Hope BC with our friends from Prayer Canada. 
     Our facility is a beautiful retreat Center that feels like paradise. To have such an opportunity to pray with veterans in the faith from across Canada,  is nothing less than an experience of a life time for Diane and I.

The Word Is Getting Out

We spent the last few days meeting with a lot of incredible folks that are so committed to improving the lives of those who need to find and develop their God given potential and purpose. Also met with Russ and Sandy from upstream and had a great visit with them as we shared notes and stories of lives being changed and the hope that lies ahead for the youth of our country. Over and over we hear that everyone has heard the Gospel in Canada what more can be done. But the changes only begin when they see the word of God lived out in lives around them.  The Cyrus Center a 24-7 youth Center in the heart of Abbotsford does south and had been used of God to impact many lives but there had to be more. After our presentation young Dan came up and sat with me quiet at first but soon the question came how could it ever be possible for me to ever come to a place like the ranch?  And Sara who is willing to come to the ranch and volonteer and help with our horse program. Also what a blessing to get the opportunity to talk to the great team at Focus on the family, to thank them for the many years of helping Diane and I raise our family into strong and committed followers of Jesus Christ.
     Tomorrow off to the Prayer Canada conference in Hope and then we were hoping to move on to Kalowna, but have been invited to a provincial board meeting of an important youth ministry in Abbotsford Monday morning and then to visit a youth ranch Monday afternoon. 
Thank you all and please continue to pray as we continue to partner with so many with hearts to build stronger families and youth right here at home.
